Sakaem Logistics was very supportive and had great and timely communication with finding a driver to transport a vehicle across the country. It was expensive but I understand the price of diesel gas is astronomical right now. They are very Professional as was the driver.
Cost factors
What moves the price of a Green Bay shipment
Season
Wisconsin's long, snowy winters mean ice and storms from about November through March can slow shipping. Winter conditions can disrupt schedules and tighten carrier availability.
Vehicle size
Larger SUVs and pickups take more deck space and weight capacity than sedans, so quotes typically rise with the vehicle's size.
Pickup access
Carriers need room to load and turn. Tight streets or gated properties around Downtown or Astor can require extra coordination or a nearby meeting point.
Open vs enclosed
Open transport is the lower-cost choice for many cars. Enclosed transport adds protection and is typically a higher-cost option, often worth considering for a high-value vehicle.

Save money
5 ways to pay less (and wait less)
Pick an easy meeting spot
If your Astor or Downtown address has tight turns, suggest a wide spot near a main road and confirm it with the carrier before pickup.
Plan around winter conditions
For a winter move, keep your phone available and identify a backup handoff spot that is clear of snowbanks.
Choose transport for the car
Compare open and enclosed options based on your car's value and condition, rather than defaulting to the more protective service.
Coordinate both ends
If your car is coming from California, Florida, or Arizona, align the origin pickup with your Green Bay move-in plans.
Describe the vehicle clearly
Share the vehicle's make, model, size, and running condition when requesting a quote so the carrier can plan for the right car.

Moving to Green Bay
Your Wisconsin car checklist
Moving to Green Bay from out of state? Plan for Wisconsin title and registration right away, then check the rules that apply to your car.
Title and registration deadline
Wisconsin provides no grace period for vehicle title and registration: handle both as soon as you move, even if your old plates have not expired. Switch your driver license within 60 days. [Wis. Stat. 341.40]
Apply for Wisconsin plates
Apply through eMV Public, by mail, or at a DMV service center with Form MV1, your original out-of-state title or registration, and a lien release if needed. Online filing requires a Wisconsin license or ID. [WisDOT]
Insurance
Carry 25/50/10 liability coverage ($25,000 per person, $50,000 for two or more people, and $10,000 for property damage), plus uninsured motorist coverage of $25,000 per person and $50,000 per accident. [WI OCI]
Emissions testing
Emissions testing is limited to seven southeastern counties. Brown County is not one of them, so a Green Bay move-in does not require this test. [WisDOT]
Safety inspection
Regular passenger cars do not need a Wisconsin safety inspection when you move in or renew. [WisDOT]
Window tint
Aftermarket front side-window tint must let in at least 50% of light; rear side and back windows must let in at least 35%. Reflective film is not allowed. [Wis. Admin. Code Trans 305.32]

FAQ
Green Bay car shipping questions
How much does it cost to ship a car from or to Green Bay?
For a running vehicle on open transport, typical quotes from Green Bay are $925–$1,250, based on 187 customer quotes on record; quotes to Green Bay are $925–$1,275, based on 219. Those ranges cover the middle half of quotes, not every shipment. Vehicle type, route, season, and access affect your quote.
How long does car shipping to or from Green Bay take?
For Phoenix, Green Bay's leading recorded destination, typical road transit is 2–6 days; Los Angeles is 3–7 days. Transit starts after pickup, and estimates aren't guarantees. Your calendar plan should also account for pickup scheduling and Wisconsin winter conditions, which can slow shipping.
Is my car insured during shipping?
SAKAEM carriers are FMCSA-licensed and insured, with at least $1,000,000 in liability coverage and $100,000 in cargo insurance. Ask for coverage details and record the car's condition at handoff. The carrier's transport coverage is separate from your personal auto policy.
Can I put personal items in the car?
SAKAEM allows up to 100 lbs of personal items in the trunk or below the window line. Pack only items that fit securely within that limit, and remove valuables, loose items, and anything you’ll need during the move before the driver arrives.
Can you ship a non-running car?
Yes. SAKAEM can ship a non-running vehicle if it rolls, brakes, and steers, and you provide a key. Tell us its condition before booking so the carrier can plan the right loading equipment and pickup approach. If it cannot roll, brake, or steer, it does not meet these requirements.
How do I pay for car shipping?
You can pay by card, or pay the carrier by cash or certified check; Zelle and Venmo are also accepted. Confirm the agreed method before pickup so you know whether payment goes to SAKAEM or the carrier. Keep your receipt with the shipment paperwork.
Do I need to be present at pickup and delivery?
A designated adult must be there at pickup and delivery to inspect the vehicle and sign the Bill of Lading. If you cannot attend, arrange an adult you trust to handle both handoffs and walk through the car's condition with the driver. Make sure they can access the keys and know the agreed pickup details.
